History of Fund
Betty Hughes was born in Tipton County, Indiana, graduated from Windfall High School, and married Milton William Hughes in July of 1943. The couple moved to Greencastle, Indiana in 1965 and had four children, three daughters and one son. In addition to her love for children, Betty also had a passion for homemaking, Kappa Delta Phi (a philanthropic sorority), and sports. Betty was a humanitarian and was always ready and willing to assist the less fortunate. The fund was established in her memory in the year of her death by members of Kappa Delta Phi and Jack and Shirley Dalton.
